Latest Update

CATG Action / Recommendation

Issue

I am reporting the issue of the speed limit on Purton road surrounding the Mustang way development area. We the resident of Mustang way are experiencing great difficulty in entering and leaving the estate due to thr level of traffic and the speed limit. I had an incident on Tuesday whereby my daughter was having a seizure in my car and I was helpless in aid her as I was stuck in traffic. Thanks God she is fine now but had it been a more serious issue I would of lost her. Also there has been a number of accident in this areas and it not good as our children uses this road to go to school. I would like the council to seriously consider reducing the speed limit so that our children can cross as well as to put a crossing and other measure so that we can use the road safety as everyone else. You can also refer to the Facebook page for moulder View and ridgeway Farn for further evidences to how other feel living in the area and accessing the main road.
